Yeah that's the thing with being a transparent, transactional, narcissistic senile, misogynistic serial grifter. We kinda know you're up to no good because you telegraph all your intentions.
Is any but the most gullible conservative Canadian fooled by the one month pause? This fucker is coming for our land, our sons and daughters and he will not be dissuaded save by terms he understands.
People are remarkably naive, especially those in decision making positions.
Remember how, during lockdowns and the slow return to normality that followed, many large online businesses made decisions that indicated they believed that consumer behaviour during lockdown would continue after lockdown? Even as all the businesses -- *including those behaving thisbway -- started forcing people back into the office?
The people behind those decisions really believed things would stay as they were. I've spoken to many more of them than I ever expected to, and they all said the same thing: We thought this was the new normal, and so did everyone else in the industry.
People are wantonly and willfully naive when their choice is between believing someing will be good, or believing something will be bad. It's kind of shocking, particularly in the face of having already gone through the thing before.
I agree, and this is, in my opinion, the best evidence that the brain acts as a rationalization engine more than one of cognition. IE: "feelings don't care about your facts". I also don't expect us to realize this while it's occuring in our brains, affecting what we laughably call our "judgement".
